test2wiki's User:Selenium_user page with redirect and ShortUrl makes Flow browser tests fail
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Flow tests on test2wiki have never worked.

I looked at one failure, https://integration.wikimedia.org/ci/view/BrowserTests/job/browsertests-Flow-test2.wikipedia.org-linux-firefox-sauce/lastFailedBuild/#showFailuresLink

The test "Follow user links.User links takes me to the user page"
fails at

features/post_links.feature:10:in `Then I am on my user page'

Message:

  Sauce Labs job URL: http://saucelabs.com/jobs/6f26f29754884927a682b06035b5e77a
expected: "User:Selenium user"
   got: "User:SeleniumBot\nhttps://test2.wikipedia.org/s/foc" (using ==)

Sure enough https://test2.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Selenium_user is a redirect, and the https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ShortUrl is adding a short URL to every page which messes up the test of the username in the title.

  1. Can someone get rid of the redirect.
  2. Does test2 need to run this extension? If so, the test for user page title should e.g. target 'h1 > span' so as not to pick up this additional short URL.

Severity: normal

  1. Can someone get rid of the redirect.

Done. We can blame "User:Block me" for that problem.

S, thanks for figuring that out. This should totally use the 'h1 >span' identifier for this
